A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

I drove three winters on these spikes, it will be the fourth, earlier usually by this time 30% of the spikes were not there, but on these everything is, some kind of special spikes there, it seems to hold on more firmly, so even if you drift on asphalt, they do not fly out, contrary to Noise expectations, they were not very noisy, quite tolerable, sometimes worse. I think this is due to the recessed studs, they do not seem to stick out of the tread so much, so they probably make less noise, and

Pros
  • spikes are strong, do not fly out, are not afraid of asphalt, tenacious, not very noisy.
Cons
  • as long as everything suits

Nice price, good quality.

If they weren't so loud, they wouldn't have prices. A good price, rather strong spikes, I always rode absolutely calmly on ice, when others crawled like turtles, afraid to move the steering wheel. That's what everyone liked. But they make noise. Yes, there are more noisy ones, you can also say "what do you expect, these are spikes." Yes, but there are still many others that are much quieter. The question is whether they will cost the same with the same driving performance, I won’t say. I would…

Pros
  • For such a price, excellent quality. The grip on ice is amazing.
Cons
  • Noisy! Noisy. And noisy again.

Acquired in October 2022, when there were very few reviews, only magazine tests. The price at the time of purchase is 4.6 per wheel, production - 2022, production date - April 2022. The car is a 2022 Corolla. In general, the sensations are an excellent balance of quality and cost, i. E. there is no insane amount of spikes, as on Hakka 8, but at the same time it holds all 1001. In addition to the handle, it is worth noting the acceptable strength of the sidewalls (0 hernias), moderate rumble…

Pros
  • Excellent grip on any surface in winter, except for a mixture of ice and water.
Cons
  • There are no disadvantages!

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

Size 195/65R15 Seat Leon 140 hp Tires took on the funds available at that time. Departure on tires two and a half winters. Impressions are ambiguous. When assembling the wheels, I had to spin the tires on the rims several times to reduce imbalance and runout, although the rims were checked on the machine before mounting and they were even. But a noticeable beating on one wheel could not be eliminated. Cargo came out at 40-70 grams per wheel. On the road, the tires behave well - they accelerate…

Pros
  • Accelerates and brakes well on ice, rides very well on asphalt. It is not afraid of puddles and winter slush - there is no aquaplaning at city speeds. Doesn't lose spikes. The cross-country ability is excellent - in the snow the car stops only when it sits on its belly.
Cons
  • Noise at highway speeds, balancing, geometry.

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

I bought this rubber in September, the stamp is 34/14, i. E. Made at the end of August - fresh. Gave 3200 re for one. Manufactured in 2022. At first, the noise ate the brain, but after about 1000-1500 km it rolled away. Noise, as befits a spike - within the normal range. Stands on Chtvrolet Lacetti sedan, pressure 2.2 Bar. The height of the rubber is quite high and, of course, there is no sharpness of control - but it goes through frosted bumps gently, not badly clinging to icy surfaces…

Pros
  • Holds the road (snow, porridge, asphalt) is good enough for winter tires and dimension 195/60R15. Behavior on the ice is more of a plus than a minus. Not very noisy (for spikes). Price!
Cons
  • For the season 14-15 did not find.

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Bought this tire 2 years ago. Traveled for two seasons. I'll go with them for the third one soon. Yes, I have a regular car. But how many times did you have to brake urgently, accidentally and a couple of times with anger start abruptly, BUT NOT A SINGLE SPIKES IS LOST FOR TWO SEASONS ! NO ONE! Although braked very cool and more than once. Once I was driving under 100 km / h and had to brake sharply so as not to hit the one who had suddenly stood up in front. A couple of cm and got up. He drove

Pros
  • In two seasons, ALL the spikes are in place! Protector like new!
Cons
  • There are none. Who writes about some kind of noise . Well, then a person has little experience. Basically the noise comes from the spikes. Here it is as it should be.

Nothing special, there are positive and negative sides.

Rubber is very cool if you want to "heap" in winter \ autumn. You feel like you're on asphalt in the summer. But there is a minus that covers all the pluses: - Noise. Moreover, the noise from the spikes is not as annoying as the noise from the tread, the rumble is as if the wheel bearings have died, all four. Mitsubishi Outlander XL V6 3.0 car, my story: 1) I paid 1 thousand for diagnostics. After installing this rubber, I went to the service, I thought the bearings were screwed up, but no…

Pros
  • - Handling (on all surfaces) - Patency (does not burrow in the snow)
Cons
  • - Noise (and not spikes, namely the tread)

Nothing unusual, a normal product.

This is the second set of Pirelli tires. On the first departure 3 seasons, mostly on the highway. There was ice, and snow, and drifts - crossings. In short, all the delights of the Ural winter .)) I wound about 40,000 km on them, minimal wear. Rubber was very pleased. The car (Volkswagen Jetta) went like a tank, never a single emergency, predictable behavior. If you want - you can let it go into a skid, take it out, walk like a fan . In short, I thought that there was no better rubber. And this

Pros
  • behavior on asphalt. Handling on packed snow.
Cons
  • Behavior in the snow.

A useless product, its not worth the money.

Tires Pirelli Ice Zero 225/55 R18 102T, took tires after seeing enough of different reviews. OUTLANDER car, in winter I drive all-wheel drive. Most of the tires were used on the track at a speed of 100 - 120, the total mileage was 35,000 - 40,000 km. After the third season of operation, 10-15% of the studs are missing on each wheel, after the fourth there are no 50-70% (the upper part of the stud breaks off, the tread itself looks like new). The second time I will not take such rubber.

Pros
  • Holds well on loose and rolled snow.
Cons
  • It makes a lot of noise, if you drive on the highway for more than 2-3 hours it's very annoying. Spike quality.

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

Toyota Camry, operated mainly in Hong Kong and the region. Driving style - calm, something between a pensioner and a silver dream racer. Maximum speed - 160 km / h, rearrangements only in extreme cases (go around an obstacle), in corners a maximum of 80 km / h. In December 2022, I bought pirelki spontaneously - I went for breeches. But in the store, instead of breeches, which SUDDENLY ran out, they offered some noname, apparently counting on the fact that "once he came, he would definitely buy…

Pros
  • Handling - on ice, in slush and on rolled snow, the car runs like it's on rails. Wear resistance - I am rolling back the second season (mainly on asphalt, because the winter has turned out to be warm today), all the teeth are in place Strength - there were pits, and railway crossings, and joints on the Third Ring Road. There are no hernias, ruptures, cuts. So, probably, those comrades who write about a weak sidewall drive according to the principle "more speed - less holes"

A good product, I advise you to try it.

At 17 radius, this rubber was the most profitable in terms of price / brand. Many complain about the noise. There is something to compare. I had a gislaved nordfrost5 on a VW Golf. At a speed of 70-90 km / h, the noise was in the region of 85-89 dB. Measured with a sound level meter on a smartphone. This tire is for an Audi a3. And the indicators with such a speed fluctuate around 89-95 dB. I can’t say that it’s directly very noisy, when the radio is on, it’s not particularly felt. What…

Pros
  • So far, only the price
Cons
  • Noise and "behavior" on dry pavement.

One of the best offers, glad I bought it.

Excellent tires - brakes on ice as well as on asphalt. Sending the car into a skid does not even work on purpose. The only drawback is the wild noise after 60 km / h (it feels like flying in a helicopter), but I think you can sacrifice comfort for the safety of yourself and your loved ones. I advise everyone, because the price is one and a half lower than hakkapellita, but the quality is not worse.

Pros
  • exchange rate stability Braking distances
Cons
  • Noise

Not a bad purchase, worth the money.

Traction on ice, in snow, on ice covered with snow and on dry/wet/mush pavement is beyond expectations and praise. The braking performance on ice and packed snow is very high. On ice covered with snow, it is noticeably worse. The breakdown into side slip on ice, snow, ice covered with snow, in porridge occurs much later than on other rubber that I have exploited. The side slip is pretty linear, i. E. getting the car back into non-slip mode is quite easy, there is a springy feeling that returns…

Pros
  • The best grip on ice, snow, in porridge, on asphalt. Reliability of installation of spikes. Price. Good grip with partial loss of studs.
Cons
  • Non-repairable spike. Noise. The braking performance on ice covered with snow does not match other performance of this rubber.

Good product, not disappointed.

In general, I got the impression that I chose the wrong dimension (65/195 15). Perhaps 55/205 16 would have shown itself better, because the main claim is to lateral swings. 100% great tires for crossovers, especially if you often have to climb through snowdrifts. I liked the rubber in general, but if possible next season I will try to change it to something else. Perhaps on it, but in a different dimension.

Pros
  • Very good rake in the snow, excellent brakes. Good for sliding.
Cons
  • It behaves very strange in corners, at first it slips a little, and then it catches a hook. Because of this, a feeling of instability and poor directional stability. However, if you allow limiting modes, when the rubber is already breaking off, or when it has already "stood" on the arc, then everything is perceived differently. Very smooth transition into sliding and really good hook. Very soft sidewall, and even on asphalt, the feeling of ice under the wheels is preserved. That is, it does not allow you to completely relax and sleep at the wheel, as 80% of drivers like to do. Which is a plus to some extent.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

215/55 R17 AM Changan CS35+, 1500kg Noise for spikes is moderate, not even noise, but a rumble, at speeds above 70-90 I bought in March 2022, tires 2022 (did not pay attention to the year when ordering) 12tr per wheel + free film editing So far, very satisfied) Its pros: Handling, predictability, on any surface you feel confident in corners, when changing lanes and on the track. Always confident, understandable braking. Cons below: It does not always move stably, sometimes it breaks into axle…

A normal product, but they wanted more for the money.

I took this rubber decided to save money and after reading laudatory reviews. Before that, there was Hakka 7. Therefore, I can only say in comparison. On Hakka, I entered any turn without thinking about speed. On the same rubber in the city, it will freeze a little and you are already carrying you on any ring, you just feel how the car entering along the inner radius of the ring smoothly moves by itself to at least the next lane. Very stressful. Yes, you can slow down, be more careful, drive…

Pros
  • Moderately noisy, spikes do not fall out, brakes well
Cons
  • Terrible lateral stability

I chose winter tires for a long time, because. the old Hakka 7 simply lost all the spikes (there is one peculiarity here, oddly enough, the Hakka spikes, when worn to a certain level, simply begin to lose their carbide core), and already behaved like Velcro, read a lot of tests and analyzed, I decided to stop on this particular model and I don't regret it. The tire behaves confidently on any surface, be it asphalt or ice. Compared to the new Hakka 7, it feels an order of magnitude better on the

Pros
  • Excellent grip on any road
Cons
  • buzzes stronger than Nokian Hakka 7, but after 500 km it is already much quieter

Not a bad product, nothing extraordinary.

I bought the first set in 2022, lost half of the studs and 40% of the tread in 2 seasons. At the beginning of the third season, with a run on them of about 20,000 km, air began to come out from under the spikes on 2 wheels at once. Bought a new pair and finished the season. At the beginning of this season, the same trouble again, with a seemingly normal tread that could roll the wheels for a couple more seasons to be replaced. 3 seasons is very little, on the first set of winter tires from…

Pros
  • Not noisy, holds the road well
Cons
  • Poisons the air from under the spikes

Good value for money, I recommend.

Departed for the winter in a Pirelli Winter Ice Zero 225/45 R18 95H RunFlat XL in St. Petersburg and the surrounding area in a BMW 4-series, coupe, rear-wheel drive. Periodically traveled to Finland on an icy road, at -30 overboard. Rubber behaves perfectly, always felt confident behind the wheel. Once I was returning from Karelia, on one of the sharp snowy turns I overdid it a little, the stern went and went, then it caught on and left. I think the rubber played an important role. I dug into…

Pros
  • Holds well on snowy and icy roads
Cons
  • A bit noisy, but what spikes don't make noise?

I live in the suburbs of St. Petersburg. Every day I drive on the highway - often icy in winter. The tires have excellent braking and handling on any surface. They allow you to safely move in winter at speeds of 130+ km / h. In February 2022, when 40-50 cars collided at once on the Kievskoye highway, I managed to slow down for 100-150m on ice from 80 km/h (although at the end I already extinguished it with the help of a snowdrift near the bump stop on the left). These are not the first Pirelli…

Pros
  • Excellent traction on any surface and handling. Predicted stopping distance on snow and ice. Highly recommend for purchase. After the 1st season - all the spikes are in place.
Cons
  • High price. Noisy. The biggest disadvantage is that over time you can forget that you are driving on winter tires.
